You know, now that you mention it, I think you're right about the HQ being here in Denver somewhere. Yep, quite aware of how they are put together -- they do some, you do some, you can choose from a variety of engines, etc. The guy driving sure looked like he was enjoying himself. The car had what looked to be 225 series tires on it ... classic definition of "cornering on rails" ... esp. when the car is probably less than 1500 pounds! |

remember the Intermeccanica Italia you looked at? It's involved in an amusing goof at a weekly publication that ran an article about the Intermeccanica Murena 429GT. Take a peek and you'll see that the car shown is not a Murena, it's either an Italia or a Torino.... http://www.autoweek.com/article.cms?articleId=101839 To their credit they have a correct picture elsewhere in the online edition... http://www.autoweek.com/department.cms?departmentId=15 |

they must have corrected it. That's a Murena all right. You'd couldn't miss that ugly mutt anywhere. The Italia on the other hand is quite attractive.

Replying to: Mr_Shiftright (Feb 28, 2005 9:59 pm) the second show a red hatch/shooting brake. Since we're on the subject was there any difference between the Italia and the Torino? |

You know Andy, even car nuts like me find that question quite esoteric. I dunno, really. We'd have to dig that info out. On a somewhat related subject, I did meet the designer of the Apollo (built by Intermeccanica as you know)---Milt Brown I believe was his name. Really gracious older gentleman, smart as a whip. He lives in the Bay Area. I think the Apollo is one of the nicest looking cars of all times.

Now if you want to get really esoteric we can talk about the Indra....:^P |

| but edmunds doesn't know what to do with those Ebay links. Try copying and pasting the whole thing into the address bar. | |
|
you just have to paste in the whole link. For some reason, Edmunds chops ebay links when you paste them into a message. Anyway, starting price is $35,000. If you still have problems viewing it, just go to www.ebaymotors.com and then paste 4531743378 into the search box. |
